FAIRPLAY IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2010 AND 2011 EVE LSV ELECTRIC LOW SPEED VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FROM JULY 31, 2009, THROUGH DECEMBER 27, 2010. A FUSE SPECIFIED TO BE IN THE 12V ACCESSORY CIRCUIT WAS NOT BUILT INTO THE WIRING HARNESS. THE FUSE VALUE ON THE INPUT TO THE VOLTAGE REDUCER WAS TOO LARGE TO PREVENT POSSIBLE DAMAGE. THERE WAS NO FUSE INSERTED IN THE 12 VOLT CIRCUIT.
Consequence: WITHOUT THIS FUSE FOR PROTECTION, A SHORT IN ANY PORTION OF THE 12V WIRING CAN MELT WIRE INSULATION AND POSE THE RISK OF A FIRE.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2010: 1 complaints · 2011: 0 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010 | 0 | 0 | 1 |

Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
